מקום אירוח מפנק על המרינה. אבל מאוד רחוק מהרבה דברים באי ולכן מחייב רכב
Pros:

המיקום על המרינה נחמד עם נוף יפה. ארוחת הבוקר עשירה ועם מגוון של אפשרויות
יש בסביבה גם בריכה חיצונית בחינם שאפשר להשתמש בה , ולידה יש קיוסק שאפשר לשבת ולאכול בו ארוחות.
יש הרבה חנייה בקרבת המלון

Cons:

המיקום של המלון רחוק משאר העיר, וכדי להגיע אליו צריך לרדת את כל ההר. יש מספר מסעדות באזור המלון, אבל אם יש הגבלות תזונתיות כלשהן (לדוגמא צמחונות) אז יש קושי למצוא אוכל.
מעבר לכך, העיירה שבא נמצא המלון די שקטה ועזובה, אז אם רוצים חיי לילה ולצאת לשתות בירה באיזה פאב מגניב- זה פחות מתאים

Pros:

À 30m du bord de mer, très calme, pe4sonnel très sympathique et près du centre. Idéal pour partir à la découverte de cette magnifique île

Cons:

Niveau sanitaires, douche.. la moitié des trous du pommeau de douche sont bouchés (calcaire ?) et il vault mieux avoir son propre produit de douche car, celui mis à disposition de l'hôtel est inutilisable...

Good value base to explore the east of the island
Pros:

Stayed for two nights, this hotel is located overlooking the harbour in the quiet village of Povoação, making it a good base for exploring the east of Sao Miguel Island. Although the hotel doesn’t have dedicated parking there were always plenty of free spaces available at the nearby harbour carpark. Check-in was quick and efficient and the room a good size, clean and nicely decorated with an excellent view out to sea. Comfortable bed, good Wi-Fi and aircon, okay shower.

No restaurant, but the slightly quirky bar area served a selection of tasty food (pizza, pasta, burgers etc), as well as both Azorean and Portuguese beers, otherwise several local restaurants are in the village. Breakfast was included; the selection was limited but was ok. The hotel has a pool, but I didn’t get a chance to check it out during my stay.

Gut für kurzen Aufenthalt
Pros:

Jacuzzi war sehr schön und entspannend. Frühstück ausreichend.

Hôtel bien placé, calme.
Pros:

L’emplacement, le parking à côté.
les rideaux très occultant, très important pour nous
.

Cons:

Mérite une petite modernisation.
Dans un village, sans aucun intérêt.
Le petit déjeuner classique… jour après-jour pareil!!
Il ne représente pas les 4 étoiles
